The authors

Steeven Hegelund Spangsdorf

Born in 1989 in Aalborg and grew up in Hillerød, Denmark, engineer (cand.polyt.) since 2017 from The Technical University of Denmark in Lyngby.

Emil Maltesen Frandsen

IT architect

From 1988, born and bred in Hillerød, Denmark, IT architect and cand.merc.it since 2015 from Copenhagen Business School in Copenhagen.

In 2012 the authors founded the web bureau Eos Web and developed websites and web projects for private customers and businesses in Denmark. This was after years of self-studied coding and programming driven by an interest in the creative possibilities of the web. But to self-study without proper resources is chaotic and troublesome, and much IT material is incoherent, theoretically heavy and detached from reality.

We have created this book to be what we ourselves were missing in the beginning: An introduction into fundamental coding revolving around a realistic project, where every single code is significant with a purpose without trivial, irrelevant hello world examples.

“

We believe in the power of self-study and wish to contribute to the success, overview and practical skills learned with ease within the field for fresh upcoming developers or motivated students. We hope our book will give you just that.
